Cryo Archon "Tsaritsa" Idenity Was Already Leaked! She's Not Evil - Genshin Impact 4.5 Lore & Theory
The leader of the fatui harbingers is not evil and her true identity has already been leaked!

[@TheGamerChronicles999]

She was leaked in the game files so they definitely intended to use her at one time but besides her name being in genshins files, her Russian name, her design and colour fitting it and the fact they hoyo is known to reuse characters do you think its still Bronya or did they change their mind?

It's either Bronya or Ana one or the other. It's the only thing that makes sense, just as Himeko is probably the Pyro Archon or related to them in some way.

[@voshadxgathic]

One of my latest "crack" theories is this: All of Hoyoverse's games are based around simulation theory. The games themselves serve as yet another set of samsara cycles. This *is* their multiverse. They're all essentially the same story, the same characters, the same games, but with the slightest of differences between them. However, this doesn't mean a character can't be good in one universe, but evil in another. The characters themselves don't matter as much. The role they serve is what's important and is what generally remains largely unchanged. You could switch the roles of say, Dvalin and Andrius, the dialogue would change, but they would both play their new parts. Sort of like a game of musical chairs, but with actors of a play moving around with each chair being marked by a character role of the game. Maybe another Neuvillette is replaced by Cyno and we have a hydro dragon sovereign making dad jokes. It also sort of ties into the time travel theory of trying to change fixed points. Time/fate just twists whatever you changed to redirect the navigation back to the fixed point. You try taking backroads instead of a highway and inexplicably, there's just enough road closures or blockages from fallen trees and sinkholes to force you back on that highway.

[@Ahru]

Also, about the end of the video, if the Tsaritsa is indeed based on Bronya, u mentioned a possible "romantic relationship with pierro", I dont think that makes any sense since Bronya so far in every game favors one character- Seele, which I think might be the reason she is heartbroken, maybe she died in the cataclysm. Even with censorship Hoyoverse shows it multiple times across both honkai star rail and honkai impact 3rd. Im sure you mustve seen the kiss between Bronya and Seele, too, which is canon. A romantic relationship with a man seems reaaaaaaally unlikely.

The idea of Broyna being tied with the Cryo Archon actually makes Venti’s line about Signora’s face more interesting. Venti asked if she stole her face from her master, that could possibly mean the previous Cryo Archon. Signora shares some resemblance to Cocolia, which would only give us more of a Broyna Cocolia dynamic for the current and previous Cryo Archon. I’m really excited to watch how this will all unfold

Bronyas character design in other universes screams Russian noble. Pale skin and long straight silver/white hair. Also, the fact that Venti did not seem to resist having his gnosis taken might signify that they have a better relation than what is being led on. In fact, all but Fucoalore have giving up their gnosis quite easily, even though they went to war for it.

[@jp9095]

Yeaaaaaaaahhhh, BUUUUUUUT... Cocolia "loved" her "children" in Honkai Impact and she turned them into killing machines. In fact, Bronya's early arc in that game is recognizing how manipulative and possessive Cocolia is and breaking away from her. I'm just saying that love can be twisted into something horrible. Dainslef says of the Tsaritsa and Snezhnaya: "She is a god with no love left for her people, nor do they have any left for her. Her followers only hope to be on her side when the day of her rebellion against the divine comes at last."

[@adrianc2463]

i still wish that Ana Shariac (Herrscher of Ice / Rimestar) will be the one for the cryo archon since, her tragic story in Hi3 fits enough for her to be put as the same tragic cryo archon. She's kinda forgotten now tbh

[@jood.q]

The archons are based on the elemental herrschers of the current era, proven by how Venti is Wendy (herrscher of wind), and Ei is Mei (herrscher of thunder), but the pyro archon isn’t Himiko bc she isn’t the herrscher of flames in the current era. So it’s safe to assume that the cryo archon won’t be bronya since she is the herrscher of reason/ truth, and not the herrscher of ice.

[@1swagevilregalallen479]

@@jood.qBroyna is the poster girl, of HI3 unlike ana she beloved, isnt about elemental is more like where broyna is the herrscher that sided with humanity, The tsartsia is the archon who sided with humanity’s freedom from celestia and fate. Actually she sounds like she fits celestia

[@jood.q]

@@1swagevilregalallen479 but windy didn’t side with humanity in HI3, yet venti’s design is inspired by her. It’s also worth mentioning that dainsleif described the cryo archon as “a god with no love left in her for her people, nor do they have any left for her” so it’s fair to assume that she isn’t beloved. I think bronya would appear in genshin, but not as the cryo archon. Maybe as a moon sister or a shade?

[@THExJMC]

Surprised that it wasn't mentioned that Cocolia is also sort of like Bronya's mother (but not real mother) in HI3. Almost exactly the same role as HSR with her sorta being a bad guy. Wouldn't be surprised if the previous Cryo archon is similar.

[@zoipapadaki3320]

I like the Bronya cryo archon theories but could you make one ab Ana Schariac?She is from the same game but is often overlooked,she is the herrscher of ice so I think it's worth looking into ^^

[@HowJuDuDat]

as a veteran GGZ/Hi3rd player, i can confirm that yes bronya will be the cryo archon for genshin, although her name may not be as direct. also i agree that cryo archon was never depicted as evil or the bad guy in most written sections i found. i saw a video title and thumbnail few weeks back about why the harbingers are collecting the gnosis, and theories about reviving the third descender. although i didn't look at the video myself but i do belive your perspective about "bronya's" heart, kinda fits that theory of "reviving" and i believe its not just any descender.. its the "Kiana" of genshin. at first i thought it could be "seele" but in every buble universe, of hoyogames, seele was never far apart from bronya and usually are around each other one way or another. i mean.. seele usually is the second in command for bronya too. so the second in command in the fatui, harbingers of the tsaritsa, should be seele.. ( if im not mistaken, the dev teased her already the fatui trailer) but as for reviving or saving kiana from celestia might be her true goal. this also would fit the devs original 2014 plan to create the "honkai-verse" and connect all 3 of these games, Honkai Star Rail, Honkai Impact/Gun Girl Z, and Genshin Impact. still this is just my thoughts on it.

[@lucidlin4145]

Before honkai impact 3rd there was a game called gunz girls. Where mei , and kiana being the lead cast. Later introducing bronya and seele, himeko as playable.

[@patrickcyr9436]

Just a wild theory but what if... The current Cryo archon's lover or father (does not change much in this theory) was the third descender who we know is now the gnoses. When she lost that person, her mother/mother figure (the past cryo archon) consoled her, quelling her sadness. However when Celestia gave the "kill command" against Khaenri'ah and she lost her last emotional pillar as a "collateral damage to the war", her whole world shattered and much like Ei collapsed on herself. Giving in to obsession, which is a distorted kind of love, tries without respite to unite the gnoses to bring back descender #3 in hope of toppling Celestia. As stated Venti and her were buddies way back, so who knows, she might be a 2600-3000 y/o who got her "job" only about 500 years ago.

[@alexandertran2442]

Thanks for this! I feel like Snezhnaya is also the nation of Love/Camaraderie

They have dropped hints about this. Several times when we attack Fatui camps the Fatui say things that make it sound like they don't understand why they are being attacked but they will defend themselves. I believe we have grosly mislabeled the Fatui. Not saying they haven't used questionable actions. But I believe they believe they are trying to help.

[@elizabethsolorio9837]

[@-nery-]

I still haven't given up on the Tsaritsa looking like Ana Shariac, but Bronya is at least as reasonable if not even more so (tho by going your logic, Murata would have been the original pyro archon succeeded by the Sustainer of Heavenly Principles)

[@alexanderericson8628]

an attempt to explain why the Fatui are not the bad guys you think. In this world humans rank far lower than you think, if their memories has been taken you could argue for that they do not have free will anymore. In a world were divine gods exist as well as dragons. From that point of view it's just for Celestia to experiment on humans. The same logic applies in the real world were humans think it's just to experiment on animals. The reason why you experience injustice is because you think of humans at the peak of civilization. But Genshin turns this logic upside down, what if your race was the experimental mice's in a much larger universe. Yes the gods loved humans, but that relationship is more like a lovable dog to a human. The Fatui Dottore understand's this dynamic and he think's it's the survival of the fittest that is the ultimate rule. An argument could be made that the gods don't necessarily hurt humans but that would be the analogy of keeping a human inside a box and feeding it daily would that be considered torture or not. Your perception of what torture is would not exist because all you known is the box but objectively someone outside seeing this would still call it torture.

[@ExiaAvalancheMkII]

This theory is already pretty obvious at this point besides Belobog is kinda a preview of what Schneznaya will be already also it would be a big copout if one of the 3 main Hoyoverse cover girls doesnt have a counterpart in this game also since the current Tsaritsa is actually the second in line high chance the first Cryo Archon is either a Ana or Cocolia clone

[@ArturFrolov-sc3tm]

To be precise, Броня is short version of Бронислава, whшch consists of "брони"(short of боронити) antient russian word for "protect" (it's modern use is indeed броня= armor) and "слава", meaning "glory" - a very common end for old russian names. Also I should note that emphasis is very important in russian. Common pronounciation of Bronya's name In the fandom puts emphasis on the first syllable, but броня as in armor puts emphasis on the second syllable. The same thing is with Snezhnaya. Somehow in eng dub they put emphasis on a wrong syllable.

i agree with everything but the very last part - i've seen bronya in the honkai universes has extreme canon implications to have Seele as a romantic interest so I believe that if they're going to stick with the bronya expy, they'll include the relationship with seele too. The Tsaritsa and Pierro's relationship can definetly be personal but i don't think that it extends to romantic partners. But now i'm curious to see how and if they're going to make a 'seele' for our bronya, i'm so ready for the Goddess of Love' s love story

I think the only thing I kind of hold against her - well, her Fatui - is that they tend to cause a lot of misery and chaos in their mission to get the gnosis... And it really seems like you could achieve the same result just by asking. Because really, all the Archons kind of throw away their chess piece aas soon as they can, making the whole "let's build an organisation to make convoluted plots in every nation in order to get the gnosis" seem like a complete overthinking move. At this point, I half-expect the Pyro Archon to have thrown away their gnosis in a ditch, and for the local Harbinger to just trip on it by accident.

[@blattsee6095]

Yea but if Genshin is based on our real life world...then Russi-EHEM i mean Snezhnaya is going to be....F.U.C.K.E.D. UP🙂

5:36 im after this might be true for the Pyro Archon 😂 look at that lame war cut scene we had in Inuzuma...

[@Ikuraga]

We already knew it was gonna be Bronya, not a surprise. I'm more interested in the Genshin Seele.

[@nullspace9927]

She hardened her heart. You want to know someone? Look at the people they surround themselves with. The Cryo Archon is delusional. Remember Wanderer said love is itself another kind of sin. Cryo Archon's love is more of the painful violent type.

[@brainrot8802]

I don't think that the Tsaritsa being the God of Love immediately means she can't be evil. Love and Evil aren't synonyms. And in that line about her from the Travail Trailer it says she is a "god with no love left for her people." I do think Hoyo is going to go down the "the tsaritsa and harbingers are the antagonists but they're actually united under the Tsaritsa's just cause" but seems like she left that love behind with the cataclysm

[@amandaslough125]

I hear that twilight princess music, you can't fool me. I don't disagree with the theory aside from maybe taking into account Teyvat tends to either subvert expectations or divurge a little more abstractly from the base DNA the Honkai characters used for the derivative exports. Also I'd like to note, they're still Mihoyo. Hoyoverse is the studio department that handles global distribution while MiHoYo is the base Chinese company. It's kind of like how if Nintendo developed everything as is, but used Game Freak (pokemon) when distributing the stuff globally. It's for taxing purposes and creative direction impeding laws.

Haha good ear you know ur Zelda and yeah it might be the most different version we get but I think it gives people a good baseline on what to expect I just cant believe they forgot to take that out of the files haha, Oh didnt know that thought they changed names makes sense though!

[@amandaslough125]

@@TheGamerChronicles999 Yea I've kind of played the entire series lol. Hoyoverse is like stationed in Singapore (or Hong Kong?) So they can bypass less favorable restrictions. That's the origin of the name change we saw.

Dude I really hope Tsaritsa is an expy Bronya😔

[@lpuff1216]

2:45 Bronya is not a name. It's just word armor in Russian. No one uses it actually as a name

[@taku.haze.cr7]

The Sky is fake and the stars are fixed because this is an alternate Teyvat kept in check by Celestia and the sustainer of heavenly principles, an alternate timeline just before the catastrophe with Kaenriah sealed in place. When the siblings tried to escape this world it was in chaos and in full war against abyss creatures, but they were stopped by the sustainer of the heavenly principles (?) (Or was it Rhinedotr the Khaenrian Alchemist who summoned a Descender to try to control the abyss in the first place? we know Lumine was the princess of the Abyss in the nationless god that started the apocalypse) Only when the journey ends the God of Time can merge this universe into the real one and cure the corruption. We must help the story of each nation fulfill to 'accommodate' to other events and then for it to "match" with the real timeline so they can be fused again, and just like Neuvillete, we must live amongst the people of Teyvat to want to protect it and confront our Sibling in the end. In the end we'll go back to Kaenriah before the apocalypse is my guess and defy our sibling. "A will that can match an entire world"

[@duellingmasterheropokeland1468]

If the tsaritas is Bronia, could she have someone at her side that is on the level of the fatui harbingers but outside them based on seele

[@blackswanxkafkatruther]

i like to think that maybe she lost her lover who was that "person on the lvl of the harbingers" (seele) in the cataclysm wich could have been the final straw for her since she lost her closest loved one

[@infinitelsverse]

They'll probably change Bronya's name to. The former Hexenzirkel member Isabella Ivanovna Nikolaevna who lost her husband to a "disease". They won't mess up with a dead characters name and just leave us with I. Ivanovna N. like its obvious she isn't actually dead. - Isabella the Innamorati aka the Lovers from Commedia Dell'Arte, which will almost finish the troupe - Ivanovna (means Daughter of Ivan) probably based on Ivan the Terrible, since she has no love left for her people. - Nikolaevna. Because I believe she'll be based on the last Tsaritsa Alexandra Feodorovna and her daughter Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna. - That's why I believe the Cathedral in the Fatui trailer is based on the, "Church of All Saints" or the "Church on the Blood" - The Church on the Blood was built on top of the Ipatiev House where the Royal Family of Russia met their tragic fate. - There are people saying that the Tsaritsa has a Saint name unlike the other Archons. - That's probably because the whole Royal Romanov Family were deemed as Saints after what happened to them. (Canonization of the Romanovs) I believe in Genshin's case all of the cities and kingdoms are built on top of the old forgotten civilizations all saved on books. "Words became Stories, Stories became History, History became Legends, and Legends became Myths. And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost in time." - Galadriel, Lord of the Rings "Dungeons are traces of a places from all over the world that no longer exists. A world that has met its end..." - I made it up ehe~

[@t0uchme343]

Bronya? No, she must be Ronya.

[@negativezero9179]

after learning she is Bronya design ok she is good person no more asking

[@ashenzenden]

you're genuinely one of the best lore crafters. Unlike phoney, insinscere hyprocrites like ashikai and islandxd who overanalyze everything, most of it not even being related to genshin and then turn out to be so wrong that it's funny; you actually look into the lore of the game itself and hoyo's other games.

[@winterycold]

10:18 can someone tell me what song is playing?

[@Hie_Hyoumaki]

Honestly I prefer Anna as Tsaritsa since she's the Ice Herrscher, but Bronya fits in terms of personality. I dont know much about honkai, but from her look and how she's in HSR, Bronya is a kind person, Tsaritsa is said to be similar as she's the archon of LOVE. In HSR, Bronya is still kind, but she matured up so much after taking Cocolia's mantle and rule Belobog. However, HSR Bronya's story is way lighter than what Tsaritsa faces, and I think that if Bronya is put under similar trauma as Tsaritsa, she can also harden herself due to her kindness. To be honest, rather than having Bronya as the Tsaritsa tho, I really wish it's Anna because appearance wise, the Bronya I see so far doesnt have that..."aura of an archon". I would like Bronya to be someone from Snezh, maybe someone who opposed the Tsaritsa. However, excluding the "leaks", Bronya being the base for Tsaritsa is very sound since: 1. Bronya's latest HI3 battlesuit are all Ice types (silverwing, HoR and HoT) 2. Bronya is a Russian in HI2, and Snezh is using Russian references 3. I have a strong feeling Silverwing ver will be used as the base, since she's the most mature there in terms of appearance. I really hope they consider her silverwing ver 😭

[@Gio_SaBeR]

Well the cryo archon is already been show to us It's skirk she was hiding like geo archon No one knows she is alive that's why all harbingers bringing her to life but she was really alive now tartaglia is with him and maybe all defeated and killed harbingers are with her in the void Since (aether/Lumine) is the leader of fatui 😁

[@WackyChu]

I thought it was obvious she wasn’t evil. She was going to be playable and it’s a somewhat rule that all playable characters have to be on good terms with the traveler. Examples would be Scaramoche and Arlecchino. The Cryo archon most likely the god of love was never evil. It was always a misdirect in my eyes. I have a feeling she wants to return the land and powers back to their owners. Celestia is evil, not the fatui. That’s the entire point of them taking Celestia down as Celestia the “old world” needs to end and a new world needs to be made anew, again.

[@rainbowdash7057]

I mean dottere tortures children and the fatui are literally identified as a crime syndicate... so.. she also waging war on the world ... like huh? Yall will over look her literally show running criminal..shes evil. The word is redeemable character...like just because shes waging war on the world for "her" idea of peace doesn't mean shes a good guy. Her actually people dont like her at all, she's cruel which childe also said she froze her heart to do war..if America said they were waging war on the world for peace would you think they were evil? Like huh? We dont know what peace for the Tsaritsa even looks like.. i hope shes playable but evil. I think we should have evil characters especially just to roam around and fight monsters

[@timobernhard6696]

Its no Multiverse, its only one universe. There are translation problems. But I think you are complete right. The cryo archon will be a version of Bronya and I don't trinken she is evtl too. 👍

[@isaiahhaley4816]

Actually it is a multiverse the only games that are directly connected to each other are star rail and hi3 in one of the special programs in hi3 they mentioned how star rail, and hi3 are heavily connected plus genshin is relatively different from other Honkai games plus it has a different name that’s not Honkai and welt in hi3 actually travels to another universe which is star rail plus star rail have achievements that mention other Honkai games but not Genshin so in itself Genshin is its own universe due to how different it is from the Honkai games it never even mentiones the name Honkai and Genshin isn’t up to modern day technology like star rail and hi3 are

[@timobernhard6696]

[@amandaslough125]

​@@isaiahhaley4816It makes sense when taking context into account. For genshin, Teyvat is in its own bubble, quarantined by Celestia from the rest of the universe. It might be a lil farther away on the imaginary tree, and thus is a fantasy world unlike the overall scifi of the Honkai games, but it's still connected.
